Incredible experience in a modern museum! Great learning and nice atmosphere. Good combination of indoor and outdoor spaces

Guide had many interesting things to tell. The museum covers Sami culture with some amazing art, clothes and tools. It also teaches you about the local nature throughout the seasons with beautiful pictures. We ate a delicious creamy soup by the campfire next to a river rapid. Then we learned about reindeer, which we also were allowed to pet and feed. Dress warmly, because you will be outside a lot.

I booked a one-day-trip with Xwander to Inari Region. We visited SIIDA, a local reindeer farm and did cooking by the campfire in an open hut close to the river. Our guide Sonja was very friendly and professional. She showed us around, told us about the local culture and was a five-star cook as well :) We even used fish which was caught by the guide itself in a nearby lake a few hours ago! Great! Xwander also organized pick-up and drop-off at my hotel in Saariselka. The trip was a great experience and professionally organized. Highly recommend it!

Sonja nous partage avec passion et gentilesse son amour pour la nature et la civilisation lapone .Elle nous a cuisiné un super repas puis visite à l'élevage de rennes. Bref on repart avec plein d 'étoiles dans les yeux . Sonja shares with passion and kindness her love for nature and Lapp civilization. She cooked us a great meal and then visited the reindeer farm. In short, we leave with lots of stars in our eyes.

Toller Tagessusflug mit interessanten Informationen über das Leben der Samen, Natur und ein Besuch bei den Rentieren. Mit vielen informationen, die ich noch nicht kannte. Zum Beispiel dass Rentiere die lästigen Stechmücken genauso wenig mögen wie ich…. Hatten ein üppiges Mittagessen - am Lagerfeuer zubereitet. In toller Umgebung.
